We’re Steppin’ Out Tonight

(Bobby Hicks with Del McCoury) 

 

Get all dolled up in your Sunday best

Put on your blue hat and your brand new dress

And don’t you worry; don’t you pout

For tonight we’re steppin' out

 

With fifteen bucks that I worked for

We’ll travel near and we’ll travel far

Let folks call us gad-abouts

Cause tonight were stepping

 

Yes we're stepping out tonight

We’ll go where the lights are bright

I’ll hold you in my arms so tight

And we won’t come home til dawn

On fifty cents worth of gasoline

I’ll drive the old Ford like a limousine

With the fender smashed and one light out

Cause tonight we’re stepping out

 

With two hotdogs and a coke for you

Then maybe I’ll rate a glass of brew

We’ll get happy; we’ll sing and shout

Cause tonight we’re stepping out

 

We’ll go to a tavern and cut a rug

I’ll hold you while you jitterbug

If he cuts in, I’ll start a fight

Because we’re stepping out tonight

 

Yes we’re stepping out tonight

We’ll go where the lights are bright

I’ll hold you in my arms so tight

We won’t come home til dawn

On fifty cents worth of gasoline

I’ll drive the old Ford like a limousine

With the fender smashed and one light out

Cause tonight we’re stepping out

 

Yes we’re stepping out tonight

We’ll go where the lights are bright

I’ll hold you in my arms so tight

We won’t come home til dawn

On fifty cents worth of gasoline

I’ll drive the old Ford like a limousine

With the fender smashed and one light out

Cause tonight we’re stepping out
